Surprised they didn't try and hit them with a RICO violation
What do you think racketeering is

Oh I gotcha. So you're assuming they're all Herion addicts without any evidence, facts or proof.
re: Heroin ring busted in Mandeville/CovingtonPosted by BRgetthenet on 7/27/15 at 6:16 pm to tgrbaitn08
They've been charged.
re: Heroin ring busted in Mandeville/CovingtonPosted by Hammertime on 7/27/15 at 6:16 pm to Agforlife
I thought RICO (federal) was a more serious thing that just straight racketeering (parish in this case)
re: Heroin ring busted in Mandeville/CovingtonPosted by Agforlife on 7/27/15 at 6:19 pm to Hammertime
Well the R in RICO is for racketeering, I don't know if these are federal charges or not because I haven't read the whole article. If the Feds aren't involved there will be no RICO

Always makes me think of:
re: Heroin ring busted in Mandeville/CovingtonPosted by Hammertime on 7/27/15 at 6:26 pm to Agforlife
Yeah, that's what I was alluding to. I'd imagine that Jack Strain was trying to make a big example of these fellows, so announcing heroin when most arrests weren't for heroin was a pre-planned thing

Yeah I saw that. The charges are racketeering.

re: Heroin ring busted in Mandeville/CovingtonPosted by Agforlife on 7/27/15 at 6:31 pm to Hammertime
Yeah possibly but as someone said earlier this is the result of a long time investigation and there is no telling what they bought, saw, set up etc within it. CDS can be any controlled substance just because they didn't call it out doesn't mean they don't have it in evidence somewhere.

Yea I promise they will have plenty of evidence to charge these people. I know 8 of them and they all sell and do copious amounts of hardcore drugs. Very sad, not sure where they went wrong.

Damn straight baw. No car = needy psycho or hipster

They probably sold to a undercover/informant during the 18 month investigation and the cops already have the evidence.
Probably, maybe, who knows? I suppose the point that I am really making is that this seems a bit theatrical of a press release to provide such little information
The main thing I find concerning is calling these guys out as users, however none of the charges are related to use. I mean what relevance does that have to the actual case? It seems like a pretty clear tactic to steer public opinion.

Message by CCTider I'm not surprised it's on the north shore.. Heroin has become a huge problem because painkillers have gotten difficult to buy, and very expensive because of the restrictions. Heroin ia becoming a suburban problem. Thank the pharmaceutical industry for this one.
